Production

Video, pictures and play-script

'When The Lights Go On Again' was a professional touring show scripted by Rib Davis, Pam Schweitzer and Clare Summerskill and directed by Pam Schweitzer for Age Exchange. It was widely toured in the UK and then played in at Freies Werkstatt Theater in Cologne at a sister festival to mark the 50th anniversary of the end of hostilities in Europe in 1945. This project attracted funding from Readers Digest and the European Commission, as well as support from the German state and provincial government. A second production a year later proved equally popular.
